From the desktop, click the Raspberry Icon > Preferences > Raspberry Pi Configuration. With Raspbian, the easiest way to do this is using the GUI. Connect the RPi4 built-in RJ45 to your router (or wireless, if you want). TX packets 10356 bytes 824377 (805.0 KiB) This allowed me to play with the configuration without affecting the network. If you want to follow the tutorial until the end, you will need: A Raspberry Pi: Any model should be fine, but I would recommend a Raspberry Pi 4 or at least a Raspberry Pi 3B+.

By default Ethereum clients use a listener (TCP) port and a discovery (UDP) port, both on 30303. You want to get to a Raspberry Pi configuration screen. Your router and firewall accept connections on listening ports. You'll see a black screen with a bunch of text, which shows all sorts of configuration details that you don't need to worry about. leave the wireless USB dongle disconnected. Now just add ” ipv6.disable=1″ to the end of the line, so it looks something like this: console=serial0,115200 console=tty1 root=/dev/sda1 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait quiet splash plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles ipv6.disable=1 Put the SD card in your Raspberry Pi, connect the keyboard, connect it to your HDMI monitor and plug in the USB power. In LINUX, you need to edit /boot/cmdline.txt as follows: vi /boot/cmdline.txtĬonsole=serial0,115200 console=tty1 root=/dev/sda1 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait quiet splash plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles If you still have the SDcard in your PC, the /boot partition is the one that’s visible on the card. If you’re logged in to your raspberry, you can: cd /boot If you see 1, ipv6 has been successfully disabled. You will see this in the terminal: .disable_ipv6 = 1Īfter that, if you run: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 To solve this, type the command: sudo sysctl -p If IPv6 is still not disabled, then the problem is that nf is still not activated. To disable ipv6, you have to open /etc/nf using any text editor and insert the following lines at the end: .disable_ipv6 = 1Īnd reboot. What’s the salmon colored region? A third of my traffic? No thanks! Let’s shut this off! Method 1: Nobody uses it and it just creates a lot of chatter on my intranet that literally serves no purpose! I mean, look at the protocol analysis that I see on my pi-hole: Why would I ever want to shut it off?!? I know, right? I’ve heard it all before! My ISP still doesn’t even offer it. Internet Protocol version 6 is the future and the answer to my dreams.
